Media Release: Housing Co-ops Are Getting More Affordable: Report

Today, a new report comparing housing charges (rents) in co-op housing with rents in similar private market rental buildings was released. It looked at Vancouver, Victoria, Edmonton, Toronto and Ottawa between 2006 and 2021. The report shows that rent trends in non-profit co-op housing differs drama...

North Van landlord grapples with lengthy residential tenancy delays

Interesting comment at the end about residential landlords getting out of the business. Government policy and lack of proper RTB funding is pushing us toward less rental stock, more competition, higher rents - and continued exodus from the GVRD.

Property owner Araz Ounchi says he's been left in a financial lurch after his tenants stopped paying rent.

Finally, some push back from the courts on local government incursions into the Residential Tenancy Act jurisdiction. http://ow.ly/xRLs50KfvAu

A ruling from the Supreme Court of B.C. has quashed bylaws put in place by the City of Vancouver in December to limit how much property owners could increase the rents of single room occupancy (SRO) housing between tenancies.

Senior governments urged to buy older rental apartment buildings

Local Government is getting more active on the housing front (ex. Burnaby, Post 83 and 115 Place Co-ops). There is a vacuum left by the CMHC exit and land assets to be had for public and tax payer benefit. http://ow.ly/Jpy250KfuHj

City of Victoria staff complain affordable rentals are being sold to big investors, but experts argue it is government policies that are forcing small, veteran landlords to sell

Buying a mobile home was the best financial decision his family made — just don't call it a trailer | CBC Radio

Not usually found in the "affordable home" category, manufactured home parks are an affordable alternative to the housing crisis, but excluded from high land value areas like Greater Vancouver. http://ow.ly/vq0j50Jq28G

Buying a mobile home and moving into a community in Calgary has made Stephan Gardner’s life measurably better, especially from a financial perspective. But don't call it a trailer park, says one advocate.

Prince Rupert takes steps to protect renters, as Vancouver grapples with similar issues of its own

Yet another local government decides to wade into and make additions to existing tenancy legislation. Moving toward separate regional housing fiefdoms reminiscent of the scattered German principalities of the early 1800s. http://ow.ly/ej4o50J1MWR

Prince Rupert, B.C., is taking steps to protect renters from poor living conditions and renovictions. Last week, the city passed a bylaw outlining basic maintenance standards for rental units and rules around evictions. Failure to comply could result in fines of up to $50,000. While provincial legis...

Affordable rental housing under threat as Vancouver looks to densify with Broadway Plan

We are all about supporting more affordable housing, but that has to be tempered with preserving very cool neighbourhoods that are part of the existing stock - just not massively overdeveloped. Hard choices, for sure. https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/affordable-rental-housing-under-threat-as-vancouver-looks-to-densify-with-broadway-plan

The neighbourhoods around VGH could be rezoned for buildings up to 24 storeys

Vacancy control will only reduce rental units by encouraging landlords to get out of the sector. Why continue when your costs for everything - maintenance, repairs and taxes are increasing and your revenue is flat? http://ow.ly/pvrt50IxKS9

A grim picture indeed - and the economy is not done ramping up, immigration will return to normal, students will return and Canadians loving the West Coast will arrive - no one is leaving, we can't build fast enough and smaller landlords are quitting the industry - lets see what happens this year. http://ow.ly/cC5n50I0xwI
